How to Increase the Steam in your Pilau Rice Dish While Cooking

ALLEN DIWAN: Hi, my name is Allen Diwan, and I'm the chef and owner of Kashmir Indian Restaurant in Budapest and we are here on behalf of Expert Village. And the next dish we're going to make is our pilau rice. We're going to make pilau rice with green peas.

This is very--we want all the steam to stay in the pot. This ensures that the aromas stay in the pot and the aromas will be imparted to the rice. After a few seconds, add about a liter of water. Add about a liter of water and let it come to a boil. So, now, all these procedure has been taking on a high, high heat, and now, we'll wait for the water to come to a boil.
